Chapter 401 - Surprise (6) (1/2)

She blushed, seeing him look so handsome in a suit.

Kyaaaa!!! So handsome, so handsome, so handsome!

Zizi internally squealed and rolled in excitement.

I knew it! The black suit will look gorgeous on him! The makeup is done just right!

Ahhh why are you so handsome, Yunru?

But outwardly, she maintained her poise and grace.

Yunru, on the other side, couldn't tear his gaze away from her. It was as if a fairy had descended into the mortal realm.

Her lips were covered in the same crimson lipstick that matched her dress. Her fair shoulders were exposed that showed the clavicle on her neck. An involuntary gulp passed down his throat. Her silky hair was tied into a bun, and two locks of hair dangled from either side of her cheeks. The blush on her face, once again, matched the color of her dress and lipstick.

It was as if time had stopped. Suddenly, Yunru couldn't hear the roars and laughter of the crowd. Instead, his ears caught the sound of her breaths, which he felt was filled with a trace of nervousness and excitement. His heart pounded so hard as if it would burst. His eyes were affixed at her red lips, which he was dying to kiss hard.

Zizi felt too conscious and feverish under his intense gaze.

I-I am looking alright, right…?

Gazing into his black irises, Zizi raised her arms and offered him the bouquet with a smile that could rival the sun's glamor.

Taking a deep breath, she said,

”Happy Birthday, Yunru.”

Not a sound came from his throat. The others laughed and clicked a lot of funny pictures.

”Hahaha he is completely dazzled by her beauty!”

”Poor Yunru has lost all his words.”

”He is standing as if lightning has zapped him!”

Soo Enlai wanted to beat up his son.

Idiot! Don't keep my daughter-in-law standing for too long!

Yunru finally seemed to break out of his stupor. Still in a light daze, he took the bouquet from her.

Happy... Birthday…?

”Y-you know about my birthday?”

Zizi felt a little guilty. ”I will be honest. I-I had really forgotten about it. It was Dad who told me about it…”

Yunru's brow heavily twitched. He turned to look at his father, who seemed to notice his accusing gaze.

Aiya? Did Zizi say something she wasn't supposed to?

Soo Enlai just ignored him and pretended as if he didn't see him at all.

”I didn't remember your birthday, but I wanted to give you a grand surprise!”

Yunru took a sharp breath. ”Surprise?”

”Yes!” Her eyes shine brilliantly under the light.
